This is an American antique quilt completed by Claire in 1963. We know this because the maker kindly dated their piece with hand embroidery. We were able to preserve this and place in on the packet. It is a traditional Hummingbird or Snowball quilt pattern. The piece is beautifully hand quilted and hand sewn. The maker quilted hearts inside of every snowball. In our opinion, this piece, is very thin, very soft, and light weight. It has little to no loft (puffiness). PLEASE NOTE: the sleeves are 2" longer than our standard Helen Pattern. There are also a few very minor zig zag mends that blend seamlessly into the quilt. If you have further questions, please direct message us and we are happy to send you a video.

Please note that all of our jackets are made from antique quilts and the fabric reflects this. Our fabrics are sometimes older than 100 years and we believe that makes them perfectly imperfect. This is what makes them a one-of-a-kind piece of art. All of our garments are pre-washed in a special restoration quilt wash. We recommend spot cleaning if necessary.
